Does Your Business Need To Undertake A Security Audit?

You are here: Home / General / Does Your Business Need To Undertake A Security Audit?

When a company conducts a security audit, it typically involves a thorough evaluation of the business’s information systems, policies and procedures, in order to identify potential security vulnerabilities and risks. The following are some of the key steps involved in a typical security audit:

  • Define the scope of the audit: The company needs to determine which systems, processes, and information will be included in the audit.
  • Identify the audit team: The company may assemble an internal team or hire external auditors to conduct the audit.
  • Gather information: The audit team will collect data and information about the company’s systems, processes, and policies.
  • Assess the risks: The audit team will analyze the collected information to identify potential security vulnerabilities and risks.
  • Evaluate the controls: The audit team will assess the effectiveness of the company’s existing security controls in mitigating the identified risks.
  • Report findings: The audit team will document its findings and prepare a report that outlines the weaknesses and vulnerabilities identified during the audit.
  • Develop recommendations: The audit team will provide recommendations for improving the company’s security posture and reducing the identified risks.
  • Implement changes: The company will need to address the identified weaknesses and implement the recommended changes to improve its security posture.
  • Follow-up audit: The company may conduct a follow-up audit to ensure that the recommended changes have been implemented and to verify that the identified vulnerabilities have been addressed.

Overall, a security audit is a critical process for identifying and mitigating potential security risks to a company’s information systems, data and operations.

At Agilient, we don’t over-complicate the process. We deliver findings and recommendations in understandable reports that will have impact and achieve the desired results. We have clients across the private and government sectors, and would love to discuss your business security. Contact us today to start a conversation.
